Where to obtain the ONTAP MIB files?
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- Cloud Volumes ONTAP
- Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
- Management Information Base (MIB)
Answer
- The NetApp custom MIB contains detailed descriptions of data retrieved from ONTAP nodes via common SNMP clients.
- The MIB is formatted such that these clients can read it while querying the ONTAP SNMP server, and display descriptions and data at the same time.
- These are available on NetApp Support Site > Tools > ONTAP MIBs for different ONTAP 9 versions.
- There are two zipped files in the download: netapp.mib.Z and traps.dat.Z.
- The
netapp.mibfile can be retrieved by extracting the .z / .zip / .tar.gz file using file compression software like 7zip etc. - Each ONTAP node stores the MIB for the installed ONTAP version on the root volume, under
/mroot/etc/mib
